Chapter 3

The Fashion Revolution.

Flashback/Nightmare

'You alright, Bella baby?" Mom said as she picked my 8 year old self of the pavement after I scraped my knee by falling off my skateboard.

She looked at me with those big deep Chocolate brown eyes with sorrow and care.

"Yeah, mom I'm fine it hurts a little" I said with a reassuring smile and my hand covering my scraped knee.

She laughed and kissed my forehead as well touch my nose with the tip of her pointer finger.

"You're an awful liar Bella" Laughing.

Then we both looked up as a black 1970 Lincoln Continental came speeding down the street with a pistol outside the window pointing it directly at us. (Picture on profile.)

In slow motion I looked into my mothers eyes; all they held was anger, sadness, grief and pain as she stood in a crouch protecting me like a mother lion and her cubs.

The gun shot silenced the surrounding forest around us.

"Mom…" I said as a whisper.

She fell limp at my side.

"Bells wake up, please your crying" Alice said as she shook me awake.

Rosalie was there also looking down at me from the other side of my bed with watery eyes.

"You were having a dream about mom again weren't you?" Alice said as she got under my bed covers and sat beside me.

I wiped my tear raided eyes with the sleeve of my blue silk pyjamas.

"Yeah you always wake me up at the same place every time and which I'm grateful for" as I hugged Alice.

"You know Bells it wasn't your fault it was just wrong identification that's all and besides the culprit is in jail anyway" Rosalie said as she stroked my hair and kissed my forehead.

"I have a feeling that the person in jail isn't the person that shot mom and that they wanted something more than just killing mom but what?" I sighed and laid my head back down on the fluffy pillow.

"I have the same feeling but I still think what ever it was is still out there somewhere" Alice said agreeing

I was too wide awake now to fall back asleep and I think it was the same with my sisters so we went down stairs to eat then head off to the American eagle swimsuit photo-shoot.
